Ever wanted to hook up your EDP Wasp to a Commodore 64 sequencer? This article by Jethro Hill is the very thing. Not only is there a little step time sequencer program in Commodore BASIC, there are simple instructions on how to interface to a Wasp synth without the need for any external circuitry or interface! Just a cable! + from what I can tell this is a simple version of the code for one of the Joreth Music Systems programs.

Also, the keyboard on the normal Wasp only had 25 notes, this sequencer allows you to access the full 33 note range, thats an extra 8 notes!
